Make Cards for Seniors AT HOME VOLUNTEER PROJECT

ORGANIZATION: YouthSERVE

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 181 people are interested

While we're all stuck at home some people are feeling the stress of isolation. Many seniors are no longer able to see their regular friends and support network. You can send some extra good vibes with a handmade paper card. Create a handmade greeting card to show support for those feeling isolated. Use colored paper, stickers, markers, and other supplies to create an uplifting card. Include a nice message such as: "Just a friendly little hello from me to you" "Hi there! Just felt like sharing a smile with you today" "Just wanted to send some happy thoughts your way today" "Take extra good care!" "Sending good, healthy vibes your way" "Wishing you well" "Sending hugs and love" "Thinking of you at this time".

Once we receive your completed greeting cards, we'll send them out to seniors in our network. Volunteers from out of county are welcome to participate and have the option to mail us their cards. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide community service verification for those outside of the Santa Cruz County area. Feel free to reach out to the YS coordinator with any questions or concerns ys@scvolunteercenter.org.

Mission Statement

YouthSERVE is dedicated to connecting youth, ages 11-17, with rewarding volunteer projects across Santa Cruz County. We connect local youth who have a passion to help those in need with meaningful opportunities to do so.

Description

A Program of the Volunteer Center of Santa Cruz County, YouthSERVE was established in 1993 to encourage youth ages 11-18 to be active participants in their community through activities they create, develop and implement. We also train college students to serve as mentors helping youth shape their community service goals and ideas. Through targeted programming, YouthSERVE encourages youth leadership and decision making, values community voice, fosters civic stewardship, and provides opportunity for cross cultural connections.
